With a warm, humid climate throughout most of Southeast Asia, as well as a bevy of unique ecosystems including mountains, Old World rainforests, mangroves, and beaches, there are endlessly enriching opportunities for observing and learning about birds in Myanmar, Malaysia, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, Sumatra, Borneo, Cambodia, and the Philippines. Of the more than 2,500 birds species found in this island-rich corner of the planet, particular standouts include kingfishers, bee-eaters, hornbills, paradise flycatchers, white-eyes, and sunbirds, to name but a few unique families. With such remarkable diversity, it helps to have on hand a portable reference like this beautifully illustrated guide, which features 140 common and familiar birds, as well as an ecoregion map showing prominent bird-viewing hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, our lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is a handy resource for educators, learners, naturalists, and birders who wish to enhance their familiarity with the most representative birds of Southeast Asia. Made in the USA.
